Ruth went to bed a little earlier than every night. She covered herself with the blanket and soon drifted off to sleep.
Hours later, she turned her head to left and then right. Once peacefully slept, Ruth began tossing and turning around in sleep. She was again having another nightmare.
She was at someplace that was unclear in her dream. She looked happy as she stared up at the starry sky. The cool wind flew through her open air. The wide smile on her face lit up.
She turned around and saw a man- her man. Edwin also had a smile on his face, but it did not reach his eyes. He looked a little worried.
He began walking towards her. Ruth could feel her heart flipping in anticipation and joy. They were only a few steps away from each other when suddenly a shadow jumped on him out of nowhere, taking Edwin down with it.
And the fear that followed after that made Ruth's blood curdle in alarm.
